Soon into his stay, the sleuth finds out that the influence of the novelist reaches beyond what you could call inspirational...</div><div><br></div>Informally desigmated as the final entry in horror supremo John Carpenter's "Apocalypse Trilogy" following <i>The Thing</i>&nbsp;and <i>Prince of Darkness</i>,<i>&nbsp;In the Mouth of Madness</i>&nbsp;stars luminaries such as Julie Carmen, Jürgen Prochnow, David Warner and Charlton Heston alongside Neill. The film is a multi-layered tribute to the work of real-life horror novelist H.P. Lovecraft, with the titles of in-film novelist Sutter Cane's books - and indeed, the title of the film itself - being closely related to ones penned by Lovecraft.<br><div><br></div><div><div>"A marvellous actor who graced the screens at Filmhouse on any number of occasions:&nbsp;<i>The Piano</i>,&nbsp;<i>Dead Calm</i>,&nbsp;<i>Jurassic Park</i>&nbsp;(of course) and&nbsp;<i>The Dish</i>&nbsp;to name but a few! He’s had a special place in our hearts for years, ever since Filmhouse became, far and away, the top Box Office site in the UK for&nbsp;<i>Hunt for the Wilderpeople</i>. As it happens, we have a couple of screenings over the next weeks - of the aforementioned ‘<i>Wilderpeople</i>’ in its 10th anniversary year and John Carpenter’s&nbsp;<i>In the Mouth of Madness</i>&nbsp;- that we’d now like to stand as our dedication to him".</div><div><i><br></i></div><div><i>- Written by Rod White, Programme Director</i></div></div>HorrorPT1H35M152026-08-23USen
